About
Climate Monitor
Our mission is to increase climate awarness by facilitating access to reliable climate data.
Simple in concept, Climate Monitor is a convenience API, built around scheduler reading data from multiple origins. Data is processed and stored in custom database for quick and reliable access, then served as json. Project is aimed at providing reliable, preprocessed data for frontend-focused web applications.
Credits
Climate Monitor would not be possible without access to reliable data. Effect of hard scientific work, countless hours of measurements and data processing. Listed below you will find origins of publications that provide Climate Monitor with data. It is always recomended to refer original publication for any scientific purpose.
Data sources
The Global Monitoring Laboratory of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
The Global Monitoring Laboratory of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration conducts research that addresses three major challenges: greenhouse gas and carbon cycle feedbacks, changes in clouds, aerosols, and surface radiation, and recovery of stratospheric ozone.
GML has a vision of a Society using the best possible information to inform decisions on climate change, weather variability, carbon cycle feedbacks, and ozone depletion.
NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory California Insititute of Technology Physical Oceanography Distributed Active Archive Center (PO.DAAC)
Since the launch of NASA's first ocean-observing satellite, Seasat, in 1978, PO.DAAC has become the premier data center for measurements focused on sea surface topography, ocean temperature, ocean winds, salinity, gravity, and ocean circulation.
In addition to providing access to its data holdings, PO.DAAC acts as a gateway to data stored at other ocean and climate archives. This and other tools and services enable PO.DAAC to support a wide user community working in areas such as ocean and climate research, applied science and industry, natural resource management, policy making, and general public consumption.
Berkeley Earth
Berkeley Earth supplies comprehensive open-source world air pollution data and highly user-accessible global temperature data that is timely, impartial, and verified. From this foundation, further questions and investigates the nature of relationships between this data and timely human and environmental issues, such as ocean temperature and acidification. Communicates outcomes in peer-reviewed journals, global print and digital media, at conferences, and website.
